THE DOLPHINS, STUNG BY the WFL defectors, Larry Csonka, Jim Kiick, and Paul War-field, plus injury losses, Dick Anderson, Nick Buoniconti, and temporarily at least, Jake Scott and Bill Stanfill, will be looking for revenge in the first week's Monday-night offering. In last year's playoff game with the Raiders, Clarence Davis's fantastic catch of a Ken Stabler aerial lifted Oakland to a 28-26 triumph in what many thought was the best game of the entire 1974 season. Oakland is loaded and the preseason favorite once again to carry the AFC banner into the Super Bowl. In addition to last year's cast, the Raiders have enrolled linebacker Ted Hendricks and rookie defensive backs Neal Colzie and Charles Phillips.

Pittsburgh and Minnesota, last year's Super Bowl combatants, begin play today with several key injuries. Ed Bradley will start at middle linebacker for Jack Lambert (ankle) in Pittsburgh's match with the Chargers while Brent McCIanahan replaces Chuck Foreman (knee) at running back and Steve Lawson opens for Ed White (ribs) at guard for the Vikings against San Francisco The local clubs, both of which spent time away from practice because of the midweek strike, will be facing clubs which remained in camp throughout the week. Coach Bill Arnspar-ger will open his second and perhaps most important season at the Giants' helm against an improved Eagles squad. Cornerback Henry Stuckey, obtained from Miami, and tackle Willie Young will not be in the Giants' starting lineup. Stuckey, who suffered a knee injury against Miami last week, will be re-; placed by Jim Stienke at the right corner.

Stienke's unenviable task will be to stop 6-8 Harold Carmichael, the Eagles' split end. Tom Mullen moves from left guard to left tackle, and Dick Enderle moves in at left guard to replace Young. Mike Boryla, who had a tremendous day The Giants will try to get off to a good start against the Eagles at Philadelphia's Veterans Stadium (1 p.m., WNEW radio. Channel 2) while the Jets will take on the Buffalo Bills at Rich Stadium (1 p.m., WOR radio, Channel 4). The Eagles are a two-point favorite over the Giants while the Jet-Bill contest is rated even.

The new coaches include Green Bay's Bart Starr, who greets the Detroit Lions this afternoon; Cleveland's" Forrest Gregg, who meets Paul Brown's Bengals in the ihtra-Ohio series; Bum Phillips, whose Oilers visit the strike-leading Patriots; and Kansas City's Paul Wiggin, who challenges the Broncos in Denver. The other two neophytes, Chicago's Jack Pardee and Baltimore's Ted Marchibroda, meet head-to-head in Soldier Field. Among the rookies who will eam regular-season pay for the first time are Atlanta quarter-' back Steve Bartkowski, who will direct the Falcons against St. Louis; running back Walter Payton of the Bears; defensive tackle Louis Kelcher of San Diego, whose 290-pound frame will be tested by the Super Bowl champ Steelers; in the mud and rain at Yale Bowl late last year (23 of 34 for 240 yards), will start at quarterback for Philly with Carmichael, Charley Young and Don Zimmerman as his receivers. Tom Sullivan and John Tarver will be the runners.

Art Malone (knee) is doubtful. Other key matchups find Eagle LG Wade Key 'vs. Giant DRT John Mendenhall, Giant Bob Hyland vs. Eagle MLB Bill Bergey and Giant TE Bob Tucker vs. Eagle SS Randy Logan.

Rutherford's Stan Walters opens at LT for Philly (vs. Jack Gregory) while Giant RG John Hicks will be working against former teammate Rich Glover, who has won the defensive left tackle spot. Up in Buffalo, Joe Namath might have a picnic working against a revamped Buffalo secondary which finds cornerbacks Charlie Ford (vs. Eddie Bell) and Dwight Harrison (vs. Jerome Barkum), plus safeties Ed Jones of Rutgers (vs.

Rich Caster) and rookie Steve Freeman. TONY GREENE, the Bills' topflight free safety who missed most of preseason with a See GIANTS, Page C-ll By V1NNY Dl TRANI Staff Wrifor The National Football League has moved out of the bargaining room and onto the playing field, which the football fan appreciates a little more. The temporary halt to walkouts and lock-k outs has assured a full complement of games for the opening schedule today and tomorrow night. "I urge all the principal participants to re- frain from inflammatory statements or other comments to the media that could prevent Us from zeroing in on our No. 1 objective, which is the achievement of an agreement," said William Usery, the federal mediator whose promise of a i new management offer brought five- striking teams back into camp Thursday.

i SO, AT LEAST FOR A FEW hours, the focus will be on the blocking, tackling, running and passing rather than the labor problems which bore most fans. For openers, the NFL will fea- ture the debuts of six coaches and several topf-; light rookies plus a Monday-night rematch of last gear's brilliant Miami-Oakland playoff game. Lolich Ohio State tames 17-9 Bosox, 5-1, for Detroit The Associated Press Th Associated Press DETROIT "Mickey Lolich had a good sinker, good control in fact, he was awfully good today." Boston manager Darrell Johnson was explaining the story of the Detroit Tigers' 5-1 victory over his Red Sox yesterday. Lolich was the whole show, pitching a six-hitter as he slowed Boston's express toward the American League East pennant. "Lolich has been pitching better than he has shown in his figures," Detroit manager Ralph Houk said of his 18-game loser.

"We just haven't been hitting enough for him." While Lolich was in command, Boston's Luis Tiant on the other hand was treated rudely by the lowly Tigers in the nationally televised game at Tiger Stadium. "I was struggling with my breaking ball," said the veteran right-hander. "It was going over the plate high. I got behind the batters and had to resort to my fastball and that's the one they hit." The Tigers tagged Red Sox pitching for 12 hits while beating the AL East leaders. Lolich, who had lost his last five starts, gave up a single run in the first and held the Red Sox scoreless the rest of the 7 rXiL? jtmmm The loss was the first in five meetings with Ohio State and gave the Nittany Lions a 2-1 record this season.

Ohio State, posting its 19th straight home victory that equaled the Buckeyes' stadium record, is 2-0. Ohio. State scored the first two times it had possession and appeared on the way to an easy victory until Penn State adjusted its defense. The Buckeyes drove 80 yards with the opening kick-off, highlighted by a 49-yard run by wingback Brian Baschnagel to the Nittany Lions' four. Johnson scored from the one.

After Bahr's 55-yard field goal, Tom Klaban countered with a 45-yarder for the Buckeyes. After that, Penn State's defense blunted Ohio State for seven straight possessions until Johnson's bullish runs in the clinching touchdown march. Bahr, 22, a senior from State College, booted his 31-yard field goal to slice the Buckeyes' halftime margin to 10-6. His last three-pointer, into the wind from 25 yards out, put Penn State behind 10-9 with 11:55 to go in the third quarter.

son again provided the inside and outside ground game for third-ranked' Ohio State; yesterday, combining for 235 yards rushing as the Buckeyes shattered a Penn State hex with a 17-9 victory over the seventh-ranked Nittany Lions. Johnson, a 248-pound junior fullback, rolled up 107 yards, including an 11 yard run that provided the, clinching touchdown in the closing minutes. Johnson also scored on a one" yard plunge. And Heismah Trophy winner Griffin registered his 23rd straight regular season game of more than 100 ground 'yards. The senior tailback accounted for 128 yards, but it was a pass he caught kept the closing touchdown drive alive, Griffin made a circus catch of a 23-yard pass at the Penn State 45.

That reception, linked with an earlier Penn State pass interference call, kept the march moving. Chris Bahr, the Rookie of the Year in the professional North American Soccer League this summer, booted field goals of 55, 31 and 25 yards for Penn State, keeping Joe Paterno's rlub alive. His 55-yarder set an Ohio Stadium record and tied his own school mark.

Juan Beniquez led off the game with a walk. He moved up on Dwight Evans' single and then, with two out, he rode home on Carlton Fisk's single to deep short for Boston's lone run.

The Tigers matched the Boston run in the bottom half of the inning when Ron Leflore tagged Boston starter Luis Tiant for a single to left, stole second and crossed the plate on Ben Oglivie's single to left. Rookie Bob Molinaro notched his first major league hit, a triple to left, in the third and then scored as Oglivie singled to put the Tigers up 2-1. Aurelio Rodriguez opened the fourth with a triple to right, Tom Veryzer and Te-ry Humphrey walked, loading the bases for the Tigers.

After Singleton's second double of the game off the right-field fence, Blair lined a pitch 380 feet into right-center. Gorman Thomas got his glove on the ball but could not hold it. Wayne Garland (2-5) was the winner in relief. Jim Palmer, who left with a 4-2 lead in the eighth, lost a bid for his 22nd victory of the year when Milwaukee tied the game in the top of the ninth.

Charlie Moore singled, pinch-hitter Darrell Porter walked. Bobby Sheldon sacrificed the runners up and Robin Yount drove in Moore with a sacrifice fly. George Scott then singled in Porter. Blair's three-run. two-out homer in the seventh inning put Baltimore ahead, 4-1.

Blair lined a 1-1 pitch off loser Jim Colborn into the left-field bleachers with Elrod Hendricks and Singleton aboard on walks to snap a 1-1 tie. Scott tagged Palmer for a lead-off homer, his 21st, in the eighth inning and a single by Hank Aaron brought on reliever Dyar Miller, who allowed both ninth-inning runs. Consecutive singles by Scott, Aaron and Bobby Darwin gave Colborn (10-13) a 1-0 lead in the sixth. The Orioles tied it in the sixth when Singleton cracked his 35th double. Blair reached on a bunt-single and Tommy Davis single scored Singleton.

MICKEY LOLICH returned the kick to the Bucknell 13 and, after a clipping penalty, Rutgers moved 28 yards in four plays with Walling making a superb catch of Allison's first pass of the day on the goal line with 4:25 left in the quarter. The Knights were never in real trouble after Fisher went 22 yards on a wing-back reverse with 1:08 left in the quarter to make it 13-0. The Bisons got their only points of coach Bob Curtis' debut early in the second quarter after Jim Nesbitt recovered an Allison fumble at the Rutgers 17. Despite losing eight yards in three plays, Bucknell got on the scoreboard on John Hornung's 42-yard field goal. Allison completed the 48Lyarder to Twitty in the second quarter and the seven-yarder to Edwards in the third to break it open.

Snow, meanwhile, continued to shred the Rutgers secondary to no avial. The Bisons had drives stall at the Knights' 26, 37. 40, and 23, in the second and third periods. While the secondary was yielding huge chunks of yardage, the Rutgers' defensive front, led by Gray and Nate Toran, did an excellent job. The Bisons were limited to eight yards rushing because of the eight sacks and a pair of long losses on reverse at-i tempts.

"We were still inconsistent both offensively and defensively," said Burns. "We scored a lot of points because of big plays, and their mistakes kept them from scoring despite the yardage total. We have a lot of work to do to be ready for Princeton next week." By RON DROGO StaH Writer NEW BRUNSWICK Despite an impressive 47-3 opening-game victory against Bucknell, Rutgers football coach Frank Burns still is faced with two problems he has wrestled with throughout the preseason his quarterback situation and the defensive secondary. The quarterback problem is a pleasant one, and became even more so with a four-touchdown performance by "second-stringer" Matt Allison in yesterday's romp. The secondary is a serious problem, as evidenced by the 295 yards the outclassed Bisons gained passing.

"When you give up 300 yards, you know something is wrong," said Burns. "We expected much of what happened because the inexperience in our secondary is quite obvious. We expected a lot of completions unless we get a lot of heat on the quarterback." Bucknell starter Kerry Snow completed 20 of 34 for the 295 yards, but was also sacked eight times for 80 yards in losses. At least a half-dozen of his incompletions were because of deflections at the line of scrimmage-mostly by 6-foot-6 Dan Gray and 6-foot-6 Steve Hoffman. While Snow was racking up yardage but no points, Allison was making a superb bid to retain the starting job even when No.

I quarterback Bert Ko-sup recovers from his shoulder injury. The junior, making his first varsity start, completed 10 of 12 passes for 167 yards and four touchdowns. Included were TD bombs of 48 and 55 yards to Manual lined to Carl Yaz-trzemski for an unassisted double play, but Leflore's second single of the game drove home Rodriguez- and Molina-ro's second hit, a single to left, sent Veryzer across and the Tigers were up 4-1. iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiimiiiiiimiiiiimiiiiimi split end Mark Twitty and flips of seven yards each to tight end-John Walling and fullback Curt Edwards; "All I know is I'm the starter until Bert gets healthy," said Allison. "When he's ready to play, I'm sure there will be a reevaluation of the situation.

He's still more experienced than I am and he's been successful in the past. I'm sure part of the decision will be how well each of us relates to the team and how much leadership we show on the field." Allison moved the Scarlet Knights to five touchdowns, the fifth being a 22-yard run by sophomore Mike Fisher, before retiring for the day with 10:16 left. The final two Rutgers scores came on a 64-yard interception return by Dave Figueroa and an 88-yard punt return by Henry Jenkins. Another spectacular punt return of 79 yards by Fisher set up the Knights' first score early in the game.
